I like to learn new things and, sometimes, I'll share what I find interesting or make cool stuff...
Light Can't Change Direction ~ So How Does It Reflect?
In this video, I explain the science of reflection and how the common perception of light "bouncing" is inaccurate. Mirrors absorb and re-emit light; it doesn't bounce or change direction.
Also, I mistakenly said "deconstructive" in this video. It's 'destructive' interference, not "deconstructive." This is an ironic mistake, given that I called an entire country illiterate. So, to reiterate, both I and the British people are illiterate.

Switch glass, PDLC film, privacy film, or smart glass is a versatile sheet of plastic that can switch from opaque to transparent with the click of a button. Here, we learn how it works and how it can be used for... crime. Music Used in the video: Satie: Gymnopédie No. 1 By Mira Ma
I Tasted Pure Mercury
Переглядів 12 тис.10 місяців тому
In this video, I conducted a controlled experiment to challenge the common belief that elemental mercury is deadly. Rest assured, I took all necessary safety precautions to ensure my well-being and to demonstrate that mercury is indeed a hazardous element that should be handled with caution. I got my mercury blood test results back, and I'm well within the normal range at only 1.0 ug/L. The nor...
Dummy Makes a Model Rocket
Переглядів 6 тис.Рік тому
Making a model rocket is easy. With a small solid rocket engine, anyone can put together a working rocket. In this video, I show you how to do just that. Mine is 3D printed, but if you don't have a 3d printer, you can put one together with some tubing and ingenuity. Here's the Thingiverse 3D Rocket File: www.thingiverse.com/thing:8754

Making Mercury Fulminate
Переглядів 1,5 млнРік тому
In this video, I explain the process of making mercury fulminate and the dangers associated with it. I didn't turn it into one large crystal like Walt did in Breaking Bad; that requires a level of chemistry tweaking that is beyond me. Warning: Nitric acid is corrosive, mercury is toxic, and ethanol is flammable. These chemicals and their reaction products are dangerous. Do NoT tRy aT HoME Song ...

Can Thermite Actually Melt A Lock?
Переглядів 18 тис.Рік тому
This experiment isn't repeated in the same way as in the show, and therefore I can't make any real claims about the shows legitimacy. In Breaking Bad, Walt uses thermite to melt through a lock, but can thermite actually melt a lock? Let's find out! I make thermite and burn a lock with it.

How to magnetize metal (making a permanent magnet)
When I was a kid about 60 years ago we used to break open mercury thermometers and paint quarters with it. It made them look brand new...and highly toxic
Welcome to the list
Thumbnail looks like you tried some of the product
Epic content, and of course any Breaking Bad fan would be curious (you hear me, Dear FBI officer? That’s why I’m here!)
I think that's the stuff that blew apart one of my skateboards that was hitting something out in front of the pool hall and I walked over and said let me hit it with this it's like a hammer he said no it'll break it I said that's all right will long story short it blew my skateboard apart up as far as two stories it came down a little pieces😮 it was this thing they used on the railroad to knock off the wheels and I guess they dissected it had a LED strip on it so you could wrap it around the track then they would run over it with the train cuz the wheel would be stuck and when does hit it there was a big bang and it blowed the wheel loose
50 grams will not blow a 14x14 enclosure apart it will be be a small explosion but can damage the internals...but not from throwing it, but by an electric shock source... Now if you increased to 250 grams it will blow a 14x14 enclosure apart. With the same electric detention. Check out myth busters..lol
what happend when we hit it with hammer ?
You imagine someone snorting this stuff then smoke a cigarettes and blow their face off lol jk they probably blow up crushing it but I always wonder how someone figured this out without making themselves go boom like how the hell did Tesla do so many experiments without zappin himself to death I feel like he told so many dumb people to go over there and touch that.
Nice
Great thumbnail lol

I'm trying to imagine a scenario where thermite would be easier or smarter than the dozens of other ways to open locks
4:14 I thought he was talking about muffin juice for a second.
I thought it was his tooth😅

Where did you find that periodic table?! I need one😮
Was about to comment the same thing .

I drank one glass of water out of a Uranium glass cup. I don't notice any side effects really. Seriously I don't. I regret doing it a little. It's not nice to think about.
You have a BR6 too?
a...hole
Teenage Todd teaching how to do Mr White's tricks, I loved it
how did you learned that things?
I don’t like that when he destroys the mercury the time area says “most replayed” implying that a lot of people have skipped the chemistry, those are not true breaking bad fans.
dude you sound like you do voice acting for a ford ad.
I think you're ridiculous for using somebody that has a habit to get them to watch your videos
HIPPIE CRYSTAL
i had already read about huygen's explanation for the wave front in my optics class but it didn't actually click that that's how refraction works until I saw the animation lol. good video.
Well I'm definitely on a watch list
couple of words. Suger. Rice
its the bomb yoo
And your hands are shaking why?
Great video!
Energy is recursive
Pretty nice video and well done expenation. Bravo👏
nice dji mic
Did you shoot a mirror!?
I did. 😎
This is so good!
Fantastic
I may soon forget most of what was explained, but atleast I enjoyed listening to it lol
Insane-O style !!!
A lot of people take God's name in vain . It's a form of blasphemy and will separate you from God . Of all the swear words you can use G.D. it are the ones that will damn your soul .
Um yes light can change direction!
Pretty sure the electricity plugged into it is what’s driving the magnets.
That’s clearly from that Batman movie and sucks out memories from ppl lol
"Does anyone else feel like a fried egg!?" lol
What about plastic mirrors?
Cool
Patent it.
Can you put tubes inside and distance them from other tubes based upon Nicola teslas water turbine that uses disks. taper the tubes so the water flows up the first into the top of the first tube. I wanna do cool shit 😂
